Broling comments

Firstly, I'm a Western who has lived in Japan for 20 odd years as a teacher in schools and companies. First of all, japan is Japan and the West is the West. Every country and culture has their own set of troubles. What gets me is looking at the photo the "complainers" are Westerners. How many panels of Japanese do you see being quoted in Western papers where they criticize what goes on in the US or other Western countries? I have a suggestion. Why not clean up your own societies and lead by example. Pushing all these liberal Western doctrines on the East is not something I condone. Actually, it is a breath of fresh air to be somewhere that is not so politically correct. Take your PC agendas back to your own countries and let the Japanese work it out on their own. There will always be those who are intolerant of others, but that is life. Getting the government involved to be everyone's "big brother" is not the solution. Open dialogue is the answer, but no Westerner has the moral high ground here. Every time I return to my home country it makes me thankful that I live amongst civilized Japanese people opposed to what is becoming a degenerate generation of hyper sensitive whimpering social justice warrior brats. I suffered bullying in my home country growing up, but I got over it and it made me stronger in the long run. So why don't you leave the Japanese out of your crusade.

These comments by economists are simply stating hope and not facts. There is no real recovery going on. It was artificially pumped up with cheap money by the Central banks. I find it ironic that during the Soviet era the West derided the Soviets for their central planning, which brought about economic disaster. Well, that is what we have now. Central banks trying to control the economy, It never worked under the Soviets or will it work now.
